Indications have emerged that a former Governor of Kano State, Musa Rabiu Kwankwaso may decamp from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for the New Nigeria Peoples Party NNPP.
This came following a meeting between Kwankwaso and leadership of the NNPP in Abuja on Tuesday, Daily Post reports.
The former governor’s intended move was disclosed by NNPP’s outgoing National Secretary, Ambassador Agbo Gilbert Major, at the party’s Special National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
According to Major, “We have read Nigerians speculating, the only thing I can tell you is that we are in deep talks with Kwankwaso, in fact we have almost concluded, in the next few days, we will be reverting to Nigerians to tell them what understanding we have had with him (Kwankwaso), but I can assure you that he is on his way into NNPP.”
“The presidential ticket is not automatic. He (Kwankwaso) has told us that his moves towards coming into the party should not be seen as an attempt to take the ticket automatically,” he said.
